The theme for the current Allsorts Challenge is the usual **anything goes** or **use die cuts** and I've decided to go along the die cuts route with this simple card.. There are great prizes for lucky winners who will be announced towards the end of the month I think. I started by cutting the background die from a piece of white card (saving all the little 'waste' circles, naturally). Backed this with some attractive DSP, the scraps of which were used to die cut the bottom layer of the dragonflies. Some silver gilding wax was added to them and a matching ready-made sentiment added along with tiny flowers punched from the remaining scraps of the DSP, plus of course, one of the tiny saved circles 😉
Dragonflies - dies from Gummiapan
Background - unbranded die from Amazon
Your use of this die with the dragonflies makes for a very pretty card design. Thanks for taking part at Allsorts and using my optional theme too.
ReplyDeleteThat’s pretty, and love how you used all the little pieces! It may have been you who gave me the idea for my die cut, if so, thank you! Xxx
ReplyDeleteThose dragonflies look so perfect with all those little bits added to their flight patterns. Such a pretty card.
